Football cards and stickers issued around the world, from the 1880's to the present day and even some that haven't been issued yet. I don't have any cards for sale, nor do I provide valuations, this blog is just a means of passing on information I have gathered over many decades of collecting. Alan Jenkins.

Boys' Friend
3 strips of 4 cards
These cards are quite rare, but they are even harder to find in their original versions - Boys' Friend gave away three cards over three weeks - 2nd, 9th and 16th December, 1911. Each of the three cards featured a Famous Footballer, along with a Famous Boxer card, a Famous Regiments card and a Famous Flag card. I only have details of one of these complete sheets.
1. Speirs (Bradford City)
2. Colin Veitch (Newcastle United)
3. Windridge (Chelsea)
Famous Boxers - Bombardier Wells
Famous Regiments - Grenadier Guards
Famous Footballers - Colin Veitch (Newcastle United)
Famous Flags - The Royal Standard
